Genes affected

GH1 (HGNC:4261): (growth hormone 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the somatotropin/prolactin family of hormones which play an important role in growth control. The gene, along with four other related genes, is located at the growth hormone locus on chromosome 17 where they are interspersed in the same transcriptional orientation; an arrangement which is thought to have evolved by a series of gene duplications. The five genes share a remarkably high degree of sequence identity. Alternative splicing generates additional isoforms of each of the five growth hormones, leading to further diversity and potential for specialization. This particular family member is expressed in the pituitary but not in placental tissue as is the case for the other four genes in the growth hormone locus. Mutations in or deletions of the gene lead to growth hormone deficiency and short stature. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: GH1 c.7A>C (p.Thr3Pro) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00023 in 249884 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. The observed variant frequency is approximately 4 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in GH1 causing Idiopathic Growth Hormone Deficiency phenotype (6.3e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.7A>C in individuals affected with Idiopathic Growth Hormone Deficiency and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 17223997, 18950677). One submitter has cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and has classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
